Greetings I Am Not Shad, A Reply To A "NunChucks Are Stupid" Video

Greetings I Am Not Shad, A Reply To A " NunChucks Are Stupid" Video Well, I thought I'd throw my weight and two pennies into the mix on this. I had a feeling Shad of Shadiversity would get a few, interesting, comments in his comment section after making his nunchucks video, there's even been some response which I will link to below my own video, which you can click on to view right below this line of wonderfully written text. My own background in Marital Arts is that I am a former second dan in Tang Soo Do, a Korean martial art noted more for it's use of kicks, kicks of all heights, spins, jumps and yes flying kicks. We did also practise with various weapons including the nunchuck, I didn't cover any of this in the video because that would be too much of a deviation from the point of the discussion. When it came time to learn the nunchuck, I was a bit dubious about it, and there were some accidents where I hit myself with it while getting to grips with ...

Star Trek vs Star Wars.

Star Trek vs Star Wars. The 2021 foreword, so this is one of the earliest, not so crossy crossovers I wrote way back in 1997. Much to my own surprise when I looked back over this while transferring it to the blog (much later than I had intended) I'd found I'd already done a foreword kinda thing for it already, so I did think, maybe I don't need to do a foreword for this one? But obviously I decided, what the hell, lets do it. I have actually gone and made some minor edits to remove contact details that are no longer valid, but as of this moment, I've not corrected any spelling errors. But I do find it odd that there were any left, after all, I'm pretty sure the word processer I was using back then DID pick up on them and helped me sort them out back then, but here I am, looking at typos. Oh well. I suppose it's part of the nostalgic fun of this. Maybe the spell check gave up and just "added" my errors to it's list of words? On another note I ma...

Medieval Flails

Medieval Flails Building on the "nunchucks are stupid" this week I take a look at the "Medieval Flail", a weapon that has seen some controversy regarding it's historical accuracy, with some convinced it's nothing more than a Victorian fallacy, with the aim to "sex up" the Medieval ages with a strange and unusual weapon. Essentially taking the premise of the mace, but separating the striking head from the shaft by way of a chain, this certainly looks a daunting weapon to be facing off against. While there is some examples of it being used in history in the late medieval period, with some artwork showing it's usage from around the end of the medieval period and the start of the early Renascence, there's little in the way of written accounts from the time, or surviving artefacts that haven't later been proven to be from later periods. Even the accuracy of the artwork has been called into question as the depictions don't tend to sh...
